Pre-Owned Hot List: May 26, 2023
Whether you’re saddlin’ up the fam this Memorial Day Weekend to hit the slopes, bonfire at the beach, or settle down for some stay-cation time, the Hot List is your HQ for the week’s greatest watches 🗽 Today, we’re bringing you the very best from the Feldmar Pre-Owned Showcase! Which one’s right for your wrist?
ROLEX SEA-DWELLER 126600
Last year, the all-titanium Rolex Deepsea Challenge brought renewed interest to the class of “super dive watches,” but in many ways, this is the OG 💪Featuring stainless steel construction and unbelievable specs. If the new Deepsea Challenge is out of reach (because it’s 11,000 meters below the ocean’s surface), this pre-owned beauty is a lot more accessible!
JAEGER LECOULTRE MASTER COMPRESSOR MEMOVOX
What do you call a fish wearing a bowtie? So-fish-ticated! 🐟 Speaking of nautical novelties, the JLC Master Compressor Memovox is spiffy thanks to an internal rotating bezel and an alarm ⏰ You read that right!
GIRARD PERREGAUX VINTAGE 1945
Right angles? Never heard of ’em 🔄 The GP Vintage 1945 is a curvaceous killer, with gentle geometry throughout the case, crystal, and clasp. Put it on the wrist and you’ll see what we mean. This one just flows so well!
ROLEX GMT-MASTER II – TWO TONE
It’s always a good day when a GMT-Master II finds its way into our showcase! 👏 When this two-tone 116713 arrived last week, we wasted no time taking some pics. It’s a legend, and in great condition to boot!
IWC PORTUGIESER CHRONOGRAPH
You ever see something and go, “Why didn’t I think of that?” Well, this IWC Portugieser Chrono on blue ostrich looks so good we can’t believe it hasn’t been done before! 💙 This is an all-time classic elevated again.
TAG HEUER CARRERA CHRONOGRAPH
Ceramic or steel? In our pre-owned showcase, you can take your pick! With twin TAG Heuer Carreras competing for “best racing chrono”, it’ll be a photo-finish for sure 🏎️ Come see them both!
ROLEX GMT-MASTER II – “BATMAN”
What can we say about the “Batman” GMT-Master II that hasn’t already been said about the Mona Lisa? They’re both masterpieces! 🎨 Head over to the Feldmar Instagram to see the 116710 in motion! Best of all? It’s got box and papers 😎
PIAGET LADIES – GOLD+STONE DIALS
Last week, we showed you the white gold, lapis lazuli dial beauty on the right. This week, we’re bringing you its twin! With a jade dial, all-diamond bezel, and yellow gold bracelet, the latest Piaget in our showcase makes it tough to choose a favorite! 💚💙
BREITLING PREMIER DAY & DATE
Understated and cool? That’s the Breitling Premier. With a pleasing symmetry and functional features, this is a true sleeper thanks to Chronometer certification and 100M of water-resistance in a slim, 40mm case 📈
CARTIER PASHA 1989
Say hello to the Pasha! Sporting elements from the brand’s elegant design language like unconventional lugs, stylized numerals, and a protected crown, there’s no mistaking this for anything but a Cartier! 👑
